Damn, y’all, I’d have expected better from a trillion-dollar People Farmer that’s helping Israel commit genocide in Palestine…
Maybe we should talk to their Chief Ethics Officer or something?

Regulating Big Tech is like regulating a malignant tumour. You don’t regulate a malignant tumour. You cut it out, with enough of a surgical margin to ensure you get every last putrid bit to avoid regrowth.
(This is moot, of course, as we’re not even regulating Big Tech, we’re feeding it with subsidies, government contracts, and access to national healthcare and other sensitive data while the folks who should be regulating them eye their next lucrative gig beyond the revolving doors of their lobbies.)

For me there is a striking resemblance between humans trying to do social manipulation and p53 protein theme.
Like carcinogenic viruses, perversion, indoctrination and other problems, people who do power abuses need to fight against safeguards
P53 is often one of the first safeguard with harmful mutation in cancers..

The most thought provoking article I have read this week:
A Norwegian bus company wants to know if their buses could be abused by China in the case of war.
So they drive two buses deep into a limestone mine to isolate them from the internet and forensically investigate how they work.
In the mine, investigators discover a Chinese kill switch which could destroy all Chinese buses.
In Denmark, that is 57 percent of the bus fleet.

Isn't this a well known practice? Isn't Tesla doing the same with OTA sw updates, performance monitoring et.c. of the vehicles they manufacture?
But, I guess, we are all conditioned to see #US #technofascism as more acceptable, for some reason.
"You know how right now, while the government is shut down and food stamps for millions of Americans are set to expire one week from now, Trump is tearing down the East Wing of the White House to build himself a privately funded ballroom? Some of the companies who are funding Trump’s ballroom include: Amazon, Apple, Coinbase, Google, Meta, and Microsoft.
This talk mostly isn’t about reactionary tech billionaires and their complicit companies. Instead, it’s about attacks that we should be prepared for during this Age of Technofascism, and ways we can defend against them.
In this talk, I’m going to try to give some specific, actionable advise about three three topics: mercenary spyware, device searches, and app censorship.
But don’t think of this as a checklist that all you have to do is finish and then you’re good. Ultimately, what we all need to do, is build an intentional and forgiving security culture. These are things to talk over with your friends, colleagues, and family members as shared practices.
Fascists are targeting everyone outside their in-group. If we want to keep our communities safe, our defenses need to be collective, not individual."

Hahahahahaha, the Irish Data Protection Commission is and always has been a sick joke.
Now they’ve just become a parody of themselves.
If you’re surprised by this, you haven’t been paying attention:

In the EU, the Irish DPC doesn’t enforce GDPR, @noybeu does.
CC The muppets at @EUCommission – your Single Market for Institutional Corruption is doing great, sweetie.

As fascism descends, you are going to need easy to access and use alternatives to Big Tech (aka Fascist Tech).
So maybe bookmark the Chatons collective site initiated by our friends at Framasoft with hosted versions of free-software services for collaborative writing, video conferencing, scheduling appointments, collaborative spreadsheets, file sharing, picture sharing, etc.

I've been using @signalapp as my main communication app with family, friends and other contacts for about 10 years.
Should I consider using @matrix more often?
Algorithmed (v): to be conditioned into thinking a certain way by algorithms that filter your reality in line with the goals of those who author them.
e.g., “They were algorithmed into thinking that way about trans people.”

Apple, accustomed to a captured #US legislation by #technofascism, also want's to be the one writing the laws of the #EU.
No, no, no, for God's sake, not for monopolistic profit, but because they care about locked-in "user experience". Of course.
And, #TheGuardian, it's not "allegedly", but an already decided case that got a €500m fine by the #EU for not allowing developers to sell apps outside its own app store, that is appealed.

Did you know that, at least some of what's happening, can be attributed to #PeterThiel reading René Girard and becoming obsessed that there must be a scapegoat?
Thiel, Tim Cook, etc. in the #NerdReich have decided that #Trans people are the scapegoat. This should and can not happen. #TransRights are #HumanRights
What are you doing to thwart fascism today, or at least expose its ugliness to normies?

This return to the Dark Ages with all the thoughtfulness of Atilla The Hun seems to be driven by the arrogance of those who own #AI assets.
The #SiliconValley overlords believe that they are a year or two away from disintermediating academics and scientists through the creation of an #AGI. I have my doubts on that front
